Manager - Global Compliance and Reporting

Step into a Manager role with global reach, real impact and room to grow

Join EY’s Newcastle Centre of Excellence, a growing hub for global tax talent where you can build international experience, develop future-focused skills and progress your career in a high-growth team.

• Transformation exposure: Build experience across operating model change, automation and tax technology.
• Flexibility: A hybrid working model designed to support performance, balance and growth.
• Clear progression: A strong path to Senior Manager, Director and beyond.
• Newcastle Centre of Excellence: Join one of EY’s strategic growth hubs, where we are investing in talent, building specialist capability and creating clear opportunities to learn, develop and progress.
